If you could explain — then I might be able to answer your question. Otherwise (if I understand correctly) — you indicate having trouble diagnosing LVH when there is no “strain” pattern. First — this patient is in her 20s — and QRS amplitude is often increased in younger adults. As a result, different (larger) voltage criteria need to be used when assessing whether a young adult’s ECG satisfies “voltage for LVH”. As to the importance of identifying an LV “strain” pattern (or a “strain equivalent” pattern) in the ECG diagnosis of LVH — I discuss this topic in detail at this link — http://ecg-interpretation.blogspot.com/2013/08/ecg-interpretation-review-73-lvh.html — Let me know after reading this if you still have questions — :)ECG Interpretationhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02309020028961384995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-549949223388475481.post-63647943152454600842020-05-05T11:23:35.524-05:002020-05-05T11:23:35.524-05:00Does high polarity fit the profile of a normal QRS...Does high polarity fit the profile of a normal QRS? The patient seems to have this on her ECG. Do correct me if I'm wrong. As an aside, I struggle to differentiate such an entity from LVH, for example, in the absence of obvious strain pattern.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
